Please, yes, yes, listen to good advice, let's have an end to this topic, do the right thing and just plug the damned thing in.

You've heard it from everybody.

Stop being so obtuse and hard headed.

  Those interfaces aren't going to translate a USB composite class audio 
  device instantly to sp/dif output. Just... use... the... analog... 
  outputs! You've got an Emu sound card. Nice preamps. Be done with it.

Another option is to use XLR to 1/4 Balanced cables and use the balanced line in  thus bypassing the PreAmps on the EMU.  Or Sell the Emu and get something with nicer Pres. as that unit is a bit old these days.
